I Have a Voice

          For my piece on voice, I decided to go with my all time favorite tradition blog entitled “The Cure to World Hunger: My Mother’s Cooking”. I chose this with two hopes in mind. The first hope being that I could portray my voice and audience awareness as best as possible. A blog is meant to be casual after all, almost like a one-sided conversation. This is why I put statements in there like “So hide yo’ wife, hide yo’ kids, because things are about to get volatile.” I don’t believe that this line would shed a credible light on my more formal essays. Being able to learn how to do blogs has done wonders on developing my voice as a writer. I’ve never been given the reigns on a paper the way I was with the blogs. Because of this, voice and audience has become something that I am gradually becoming more and more aware of. Oh, and the second hope of mine is that my mother is to never read this.
